    My Dr. wants my incision changed daily as part of the incision opened up and draining. Will Medicare B cover the changing of the dressing daily? I have a supplement insurance Blue cross Blue Shield Medix

    Can you please tell us if we can hire our own home health care or have to go through an agency - because we are finding the agency is taking more than half of my dads funds - leaving him with less care. We can hire direct and get more coverage but finding obstacles. Any information would be so very helpful.

      This is a link that MAY help.
      www.medicare.gov/coverage/home-health-services
      If not the phone number for Medicare is 1 800 Medicare
      Also, if the person who has Medicare has a Medigap policy (their Medicare Supplement policy) call the office of the person who sold you that policy. If they are not willing to help you then find a different company to work with.
      My family owned an insurance brokerage for years and we specialized in Medicare Supplements. We always helped our clients. It set us apart from many other brokerages. Make sure you have an agent willing to work with you. It really makes a difference.
      Good luck.

      Healthcare workers are not paid well at all, making a shortage of patients getting coverage.
      The agency takes a huge part of the benefits paid on behalf of clients.
